Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Premere Pics: Stars on the Red Carpet

We're just one week away from the start of the final chapter.
On November 19, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will hit theaters around the nation. While readers continue to watch that movie's official trailer on THG, the stars of this beloved franchise hit the red carpet this week for a premiere in London.

Said Daniel Radcliffe at the event:

“It is a very strange sensation for it to suddenly be drawing to a close... It was emotional, there was a lot of tears were shed... [but] while we will miss it, and we loved it, we are all ready to move on.”

Teresa Giudice to Teach Women "How To Have It All"

Note to THG readers: while it may seem as though the following story is too ludicrous to be real, every word is as depressingly true as Angelina Pivarnick's attempt to rap is hilariously awful. Consider yourself warned.
On January 10, Teresa Giudice will host a seminar in New York City that will "teach women how to have it all," according to a press release.

If plan on paying for advice from Teresa Giudice, go find a toilet, drop bills into it and press flush. It will take less time and be equally worthwhile.

In a blurb hyping the event, scheduled for the Learning Annex in midtown Manhattan, Giudice is described as a "hero to modern women” who manages to “make time to make homemade meals” despite her schedule.

We repeat: we are NOT making this up.

It will cost people who seriously need to re-evaluate their lives fans $44.95 to attend.

“Whether you want to get on a reality TV show, write a book, start and run a business, change careers, this inspiring evening with a woman who has 377,000 online followers will get you going in the right direction,” the blurb reads. “Teresa will talk about marketing yourself, dealing with difficult people, working with the press, and she will share juicy details about what goes on behind the scenes of the Real Housewives of New Jersey.”

In news that some may consider relevant to this "hero," Teresa recently got into a blowout with her brother, is millions of dollars in debt and stands accused of hiding assets from the government.

Taylor Momsen on Sucking: It's My Parents' Fault!

Reflecting on why she's the way she is, Taylor Momsen blames her parents for robbing her of a healthy childhood, insisting they are the reason she's so miserable.
The Gossip Girl star, model and lead singer of The Pretty Reckless said, "Everyone's like, 'Wow, why is she upset and why is she so miserable about things?'"
"My parents signed me up with Ford [modeling agency] at the age of two," she lamented. "No two-year-old wants to be working, but I had no choice."

SAD GOTHIC BARBIE: It's Taylor Momsen's parents' fault!!!

The 17-year-old continued, "My whole life, I was in and out of school. I didn't have any friends. I was working constantly and I didn't have a real life."
Poor thing.
Don't get us wrong, it starts with upbringing. But it's hard to imagine her parents are pleased with - or responsible for - Taylor Momsen topless concert appearances or magazine shoots with guns and lingerie. That's on you, T.

Kendra Wilkinson Continues to Mislead the Public

Kendra Wilkinson is not exactly the most talented celebrity on the planet.
Therefore, in order to garner attention for the new season of her E! reality show, the centerfold has resorted to simply misleading the public regarding events in her life. For example:

Kendra made a huge deal out of NOT posing for Playboy again. Was this technically true? Yes. Is she on the cover of that magazine's holiday issue? Yes.
Kendra gave an interview in which she whined about being a single parent. Is she? Of course not. She's wealthy and married and simply lives apart from her husband for a few weeks per year.

Now, Wilkinson is at it again. Pictured on the cover of In Touch Weekly, the giant-boobed blonde says baby number-two is "on the way." Does this mean she's pregnant? No, it's tabloid 101, folks. On the way could mean that one will arrive at some point in the future... maybe.

Kendra Wilkinson is pregnant... with lies about her life!

Angelina Jolie Covers Vogue, Gushes About Brad Pitt

Angelina Jolie looks stunning on the cover of Vogue’s December 2010 issue, and inside, gushes over Brad Pitt and raising six kids with the star.
The Tourist star calls her partner “extremely handsome and the most sexy,” but says she’s most in love with him when he’s with their children.
For a movie star, that's a remarkably down-to-earth statement. Maybe she's nothing like the control freak drug fiend the tabloids say she is ...

Angelina Jolie in the December issue of Vogue.

Other highlights from the interview ...

At age 6, Pax is a better cook than Ange (per Ange)
Maddox encourages ger when she makes breakfast
Shiloh found and wanted to keep a dead bird as a pet
She has a permanent wire tap on Jennifer Aniston
They have a bulldog named Jacques and nannies who speak Vietnamese and Cambodian, the native tongues of Pax and Maddox, respectively

Just kidding about the fourth bullet point above. Just making sure you're still here. Basically, she's supermom and a super individual, as evidenced by all her trips to Pakistan, Haiti and anywhere there's a humanitarian crisis. Eat it, haters!

Lindsay Lohan, Parents to Bury the Hatchet?

Lindsay Lohan and estranged parents, Michael and Dina, haven't had the best of relationships, but all three may sit down to resolve old issues, reports say.
Just when we thought we'd seen everything. What's next? Kanye and W making up and Bristol Palin making it to the final four on Dancing with the Stars?
Oh, wait ...

ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY? Hey, anything's possible. Apparently.

Doctors and therapists at the Betty Ford Clinic, where Lindsay Lohan will continue to reside until early 2011, have been "encouraging" her to get in a room with her folks to resolve issues that may have put her in her current state.
Five or six years too late, but hey, better than never.
Lindsay is being urged to consider getting both parents together with her during one of Betty Ford's family week next month. Lohan may even go for it.
One encouraging sign? Michael Lohan, who spent time with Lindsay this week, says he's willing to sit down with Dina AND won't blab to the press. Wow.
As for Dina Lohan, she's not pleased with the idea but hasn't ruled it out. She seems more interested in Lindsay's recovery than ever, so here's hoping.
Dina went to Betty Ford for a family week last month. Michael, who made a stink about being shut out, will go to a family week sans Dina next week.
Lindsay appears committed to the whole thing, because yesterday she and Michael made time for a little mid-day movie date - their second in a week.
All encouraging signs. Let's hope they build toward real change for a star whose downward spiral can't get much worse. We applaud all their efforts.

CMA Awards Fashion Face-Off: Billy Ray Cyrus vs. Kid Rock

This might be the first and last time Bilyl Ray Cyrus is ever compared to Kid Rock.
But the newly single father of Miley Cyrus walked the red carpet of the Country Music Awards last night, all by his lonesome, following his recent divorce from wife Tish.
The Detroit rocker did the same, refraining from once again calling Steven Tyler an idiot and simply posing for photographers in his usual attire. Check out both quasi studs here and then vote in our poll:

Demi Lovato Update: Sources Deny Drugs, Raise Questions Over Deceased Friend

"Demi is not in treatment for drugs. She is there to deal with emotional and physical issues she's been battling her whole life."
These are the words of family friend, shooting down recent rumors that Demi Lovato entered a rehab facility due to a problem with cocaine and alcohol.
So, is there a specific issue that forced this young singer to leave her Sorth American tour and seek help? Possibly, reports Star Magazine

In July, an aspiring musician named David Osborn died in a tubing accident. An insider claims Lovato had grown close to the rocker, who she met at a mutual friend's party in December. Soon after his passing, Demi Tweeted:

"Can't wait to see you again in heaven... Texas isn't the same without you... RIP Dave Osborn."

While it's possible the death of a loved one played a role in Demi's demise - which culminated in a physical confrontation with a backup dancer in Peru - the same source that denies this troubled star used drugs also tells People her downfall was related to a lot more than just one incident.

"This is a girl with emotional problems who has been fighting demons her whole life... She is determined to get better."

Inside the (Fake) Kardashian Sister Split!

Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian have been spotted together numerous times over the last few weeks, most recently at the opening for Dash NYC.
But beneath the red carpet smiles and plastic body parties, Life & Style has breaking, utterly contrived news for fans of thees siblings: they hate each other!!!
"When Khloé arrived in NYC, Kim wanted nothing more than for the three sisters to hit the town together and have fun," an insider tells the tabloid. "But Khloé said Kim was being a selfish bitch. Kim burst into tears and rushed out of the room."

Forget a pretend Kardashian split... Amber Portwood has three boyfriends AND a baby?!?

Indeed, while Kim claims to be content with her single life, such a contrast with her siblings has apparently created an opportunity for imaginary sources to give fake quotes a riff.

"Kim definitely feels abandoned," says this family friend. "It's clear that Kourtney and Khloé are bonding over being settled down, and Kim just doesn't fit in."

It really is clear, isn't it, people?

The magazine claims Kourtney and Khloe are also freezing Kim out of their business, making decisions about clothing locations inside Dash without consulting their sister.

"They've grown apart much more than Kim had realized. It's made her very sad," reads this cover story.

Will Bristol Palin Make the Finals on Dancing With the Stars?

Will Bristol Palin make the finals on Dancing With the Stars? Don't count her out, the way she's been improving people have inexplicably been voting.
Week after week, Palin has landed at the bottom of the scoreboard, but week in and week out, a far superior dancer packs his or her bags instead.
With only four couples left, there's a fair chance Bristol the Pistol ends up in the finals. What is it about Sarah Palin's daughter that keeps her on?

"Bristol Palin is somebody I think most of Middle America and regular people can relate to," judge Carrie Ann Inaba said. "She's a regular girl with normal problems and normal issues. I think a lot of people look at her and see themselves."
A lot of people look at the daughter of a major political figure, who's only famous for getting pregnant as a teenager, and see themselves? Eh, we'll buy it.
"I think the Bristol Palin conspiracy phenomenon," Inaba said. "I feel like she's very relatable to the average person. She's non-pretentious, very relaxed."
Will mediocre dance moves and overwhelming fan support carry her into the finale November 23? Who are YOU rooting for on Dancing With the Stars?

Spencer Pratt Presents: "Inland Empire 909" (A Blatant Jersey Shore Knockoff)

The Inland Empire (I.E.), colloquially known as the IE, is a metropolitan area centered around the cities of Riverside and San Bernardino in Southern California.
This region east of Los Angeles is also the site of Spencer Pratt's new reality show, Inland Empire 909, which you will likely never see on any television station.
Obsessed with Jersey Shore since its premiere, which also coincided with his own decline in relevance, Spencer is desperately trying to cash in on the concept.

WANNABE PRODUCER: Ha. All Spencer produces is laughter. Which we certainly appreciate, but that's not his intent. [Photo: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com]

Now an unemployed filmmaker, Spencer Pratt gushed to Radar about his new reality show, which he'll be "shopping to the networks in the coming weeks.”
“These girls will eat the cast of Jersey Shore alive,” said the former Hills villain. “They will keep it real and not say they are only that way for a show.”
“To be honest, I'm scared of the entire cast. Lauren from 909 is younger and more wild then J-Woww and they fight for real every single night.”
The Inland Empire 909 trailer begins on a black screen, then states the absurd number of viewers (4.8 million) that watched the Jersey Shore finale.
909 then promises a “younger and sexier” cast.
“They are the next level of reality TV. Where Jersey Shore and the East Coast has Snooki, the West Coast has T-BONE aka Tayrn, tearing it UP!" Mr. Heidi Montag boasts. ”The 909 is untapped, reality TV gold audiences have been waiting for.”
The 909 trailer shows troubled cast members barbequing and discussing sex, fights, partying and more. One guy reveals his stomach. Real original.
At least his quote-unquote feature film, Tower 69: Malibu Beach Patrol Featuring 3-D Boobs, was his own idea. A hilariously bad one, but his own.

Ali Larter on New Jersey-Based Reality Shows: Terrible!

Ali Larter won't be sending Snooki or Teresa Giudice a Christmas card.
In a recent discussion with E! News, the beautiful actress says she isn't a fan of reality shows that depict her native New Jersey in a negative, stereotypical light.
"I've seen a couple of them and I feel like it's such a terrible depiction of our lovely Garden State," said the former Heroes star, who is due to give birth on Christmas.

Sorry, Snooki and Teresa. But we're on Ali Larter's side because... well,she's anything but a grenade.

Is Larter saying there are no guidos or guidettes in the region?

"There's definitely some guidos in New Jersey, but where I grew up it's like the cranberry bogs, the forests, and the farm... going apple picking and rolling green hills," she said.

Larter concluded her mini rant by labeling Jersey as "beautiful and amazing." Coming from someone who looks like THIS, she is an expert in these areas.

Inside the Explosive Cyrus Family Fight: What Led to Divorce?

Rumors of an affair between Tish Cyrus and Bret Michaels have faded away, as both side immediately shot down this silly talk.
But The National Enquirer has come out with a new basis for Tish's recent divorce from husband Billy Ray, a split that could find the ex-couple battling over close to $100 million.

Billy Ray looked cool and collected at the CMAs this week. But that was apparently not the case last month.

The break-up is allegedly the result of a furious fight between the pair, as the tabloid claims Billy Ray grounded Miley Cyrus for talking back to him.
Tish intervened, reportedly undermined her husband - and the result was a rage-filled Billy Ray trying to knock down his wife's bedroom door out of anger for her actions.
"Billy screamed terrible things at Tish," says an insider. "Tish locked herself in her bedroom to escape Billy Ray's wrath. And he pounded on the door screaming: 'Come out here and talk to me, bitch! You let everyone run wild when I'm not here! It's going to STOP!'"
As always, it's important to point out the questionable source here. But it's also important to remember: The National Enquirer was actually, incredibly nominated for a Pulitzer Prize this year, based on its accurate reporting of the John Edward/Rielle Hunter affair.
Does that mean every story it reports on is valid? Not even close. But it does mean we need to take its accusations a bit more seriously than we did in the past. Are you buying this one?

John Travolta, Kelly Preston Await Baby Son

Reeling from the loss of their teenage son and a slew of sordid tabloid rumors, John Travolta and Kelly Preston are looking forward to the most joyous of moments. The final countdown to the birth of their new baby, a boy, is underway.
“I can’t wait to meet Benjamin,” Travolta told Extra.

John, Kelly and daughter Ella.

That might happen sooner than he planned. Confirming Preston’s due date is Nov. 26, Travolta revealed his wife, 48, has had some dicey moments lately.
Even though he’s in Australia to celebrate the 90th Anniversary of Qantas Airways, he’s ready to rush home at a moment's notice for the big moment.
“When I left, she was having what they call Braxton Hicks, the fake labor, and we were both a little worried,” Travolta, 56, says. “But then the doctor said to drink more water, more liquids and that stops that.”
“I think she just had a little talk with Ben and said, ‘Look, let’s wait till Dad comes home and deliver then,’” Travolta adds. “But I’m ready to go at any minute. If she started having labor now we would leave and take 22 hours to get home, but I’ll get there.”
The actor also revealed the family, including daughter Ella Bleu, 10, will spend the holidays on the east coast, heading “up to Maine for Christmas.”

Amber Portwood Laments Loss of Baby Leah

Teen Mom star Amber Portwood says having 2-year-old daughter Leah taken away by Child Protective Services and placed with her ex-fiance was a low point.
We can see that. The powers that be intervened for other reasons than her routine beatings of Gary Shirley, too. The attention Amber gets was a big concern.

"Child Protective Services agreed that it was safer for her to stay at Gary's because of all the photographers outside my house," says Amber Portwood.

TEEN MOM BEATDOWN: Gary Shirley's received his share.

Amber's now-infamous physical attacks on her ex have garnered national attention, and sparked a domestic abuse investigation by Anderson, Ind., police.
On medication to cope with anxiety, she calls the forced separation from Leah "is the lowest of the low. Every night she's been saying, 'Where's Mommy?'"
"I feel like everything is spinning out of control, and I'm just trying to put the pieces back together," she tells Us Weekly. "I have to get myself better.
"When I get my baby back, she'll see her mom as happy as can be."

Style Showdown: Blake Lively vs. Rihanna vs. Madonna

When it comes to setting, not just following fashion trends, Blake Lively, Rihanna and Madonna all know a thing or two about a thing or two. But who will prevail in this fashion face-off and who'll get the boot (sort of literally)?
The Queen of Pop and the Gossip Girl star both wore Stella McCartney thigh-highs out recently, but it was the "Only Girl in the World" singer who actually wore them first (last fall). Who do they look best on? You tell us!

Kurt Warner Voted Off Dancing With the Stars

While Monday's episode of Dancing With the Stars was a bit of a blur, last night's was a bit of a foregone conclusion. One of two people would be leaving us.
Those people were not Kyle Massey, Jennifer Grey or Brandy.The instant dance portion of the night helped them, but Kurt Warner and Bristol Palin suffered.
It was these low-scoring celebs who had to worry. When Brandy was placed in the bottom two with Kurt, it was over. The conspiracy theory is alive and well.

Kurt Warner and Anna Trebunskaya Picture

Kurt Warner and Anna Trebunskaya gave it a heck of a run.

Ridiculous as it is that Bristol Palin is somehow in the final four this season, the ousted NFL quarterback didn't seem to be shocked by the outcome Tuesday.
"I think, obviously there was the possibility when you're at the bottom two," Kurt Warner said. "We came in a number of times this year when we were low and kind of expected that the possibility was there, and you prepare yourself for that."
"I'm going to miss [Anna Trebunskaya]," added two-time NFL MVP Kurt. "You know, I mean, when you spend so much time with someone and build this relationship, you know, it's going to be tough not seeing her every day."
"You're going to miss Monday nights," joked partner Anna. "You're going to miss going out there in the bright neon green with fringes on your pants."

American Idol Auditions: News, Notes and Country Singers Galore!

With American Idol set to return to the air in January, auditions are underway for the next Adam Lambert or Kris Allen.
How are they going so far? Producer Nigel Lythgoe answered that question for People magazine this week, going into detail on a number of topics. To wit:

Who has auditioned so far? "We're seeing quite a lot of country singers, a lot of young talent because we've opened it up to 15-year-olds now."
How is J-Lo faring as a judge? "Jennifer actually critiques what's in front of her. She doesn't just throw out glib remarks. She listens, she weighs it up and then she says how she feels."
And Steven Tyler? "[He] doesn't have a bad bone in his body and finds it very difficult to say 'you suck' to anybody."
What's his take on instruments? "People sort of lost a little bit behind instruments. I see no reason why we won't use guitars and pianos at least once or twice across the season, but I don't just want them everyday behind the bloody guitar."
And celebrity guest judges? "I'm not sure I'm going to use any guest judges, to be frank. We've got an entire record company behind it now with Interscope. We've got Jimmy Iovine and all of his producers... You've got real professionals here. I don't know why I need anyone else. They'll just get in the way."
Think that's a good plan? Are you excited for season 10 of American Idol?

Runs in the Family: Darlene Egelhoff, Heidi Montag's Mom, is Flat Broke

It's been a rough year for Darlene Egelhoff.
Aside from her estranged relationship with Heidi Montag since February, the mother of three and her husband, Tim, also now face financial problems.
Timberlines, a popular restaurant featured on The Hills and owned by Heidi's folks in Crested Butte, Colo., went out of business after a 21-year run.

Heidi's mom Darlene Egelhoff in a scene from The Hills.

"We're a tourist town, so our business was dependent on the economy," Egelhoff tells People. "We were forced to close because of the economy."
Egelhoff admits she hit such a low that, at the end of last year, she even borrowed money from Heidi Montag, who's now close to bankrupt herself.
Even that wasn't enough, however, and she's gone from owning that restaurant and making appearances on The Hills to working as a maid for a living.
"The work is sporadic and competitive," Egelhoff says of her new gig. "My work is not enough to pay the bills. We need other work immediately. [My son] Sky is eligible for free lunch at school and is proud to take advantage of it."
Despite the hardships she and her family have faced, Egelhoff maintains a positive outlook on life and on the possibility of reconciling with Heidi.
"I have no regrets in life," she says. "I feel like God makes all things for good, and the most difficult situations we go through in life are opportunities. That's when we build character and strength – during difficult times."
"I love Heidi more every day, even though I don't talk to her. I love her unconditionally. I have confidence that we will have a loving, strong relationship again. I think it just takes time. Heidi and I were so close when she was growing up."
"I think she needed to disconnect from me to discover herself."
Unfortunately, she also discovered Spencer Pratt.

Report: Demi Lovato is Rehabbing in Illinois

Demi Lovato is receiving treatment at a facility outside of Chicago.
Gossip Center spies say they saw the singer's family members at Timberline Knolls Residential Treatment Center over the weekend, which is located in Lemont, Illinois.

Information about patients is kept private, of course, but the facility's website says residents get involved in local causes at "nursing homes, animal shelters, children's hospitals and veteran's organizations.

"Volunteer work is an important part of residential treatment because it reinforces the ability to connect with others," reads the site. "It also helps them realize that they are not the only ones who face lifelong challenges and need the assistance of others in this world to live a healthy and fulfilling life."

Makes sense to us.

We continue to wish Demi very well, and continue to hope her father learns to shut up about his daughter. We'd welcome a fight between Patrick Lovato and Michael Lohan, wouldn't you?

Kristian Herzog Likely Nailed Oksana Grigorieva; Lies Piling Up For Mel Gibson Baby Mama

Kristian Herzog was Oksana Grigorieva's former bodyguard. He also claims he was her lover, which she denies. So who's the liar and what does it matter?
Well, it looks like Oksana's legal team lied last month when they denied she had an intimate relationship Herzog, a convicted felon and her ex-bodyguard.
That's according to emails between the bodyguard and Oksana's lawyer, which TMZ has obtained. So they probably smashed it up. Why is this significant?

Oksana Grigorieva and Kristian Herzog, who once worked for Paris Hilton.

Kristian Herzog is supposedly writing a tell-all book about his "intimate" relationship with Oksana that began in May. She's called this claim "ridiculous."
He says he has at least 1,000 text messages and emails in which he communicates with Oksana about her case and evidence (hello, Mel Gibson tapes).
If his credibility were disputed, it would help Oksana's claims against Mel Gibson. But if she's a proven liar, it boosts Mel's case that she extorted him.
It looks like Oksana Grigorieva is indeed a proven liar.
An email Herzog sent to Martin Garbus, an Oksana lawyer, reads: "Martin: Do you agree that Team Oksana at some point, needs to admit Oksana and Dan LIED to TMZ and you need to tell the truth that in fact Oksana and I were intimate?"
The next morning, Garbus responded with one word: "Yes."
Dan is Dan Horowitz, another one of her many lawyers. He explains the email: "Marty's job was to placate Kris, because once he got cut out of Oksana's world completely, we assessed him to be a clear and present danger to her life."
"By stringing him along and making him feel more important, we hoped that he would just fade away rather than explode and hurt somebody."
But there's even more to it. TMZ has Oksana Grigorieva pictures in which she's wearing a nightgown, sitting on a bed with Herzog at her home.
But Horowitz tells us the pictures were taken during a People magazine photo shoot and were in no way intimate. Anyone out there buying that?
It's worth noting that the judge in the Mel-Oksana custody case issued a restraining order against Herzog, concluding he was a danger to Lucia.
Basically, everyone involved is shady and a huge mess.

Floyd Mayweather Ordered to Stay Away from Children, Ex

After skipping a court hearing yesterday, Floyd Mayweather finds himself in even more legal trouble.
The boxer has been ordered to pat $31,000 in bail and to stay away from Josie Harris and the two children he shares with this ex-girlfriend.

Floyd Mayweather Photo ... Shift+R improves the quality of this image. Shift+A improves the quality of all images on this page.

Mayweather was due in court to face eight misdemeanor and felony charges, all of which stem from a September incident in which he allegedly punched Harris in the face and took her cell phone.

Reports indicate he also threatened to beat his children if they dialed 911. The world champion athlete could face up to 34 years in prison if convicted on charges that include felony coercion, grand larceny and robbery. He is due back in court January 24.

Michael Jackson's Kids: Safe From Crazy Joe

Fans worried about Michael Jackson's kids after watching Katherine Jackson on Oprah need not worry. They will not suffer the child abuse their father did.
Katherine, Michael's mother and now the legal guardian of his children Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket, does not believe in physical discipline. Period.

Joe Jackson beat Michael and basically said he'd do it again, but Katherine corrects Paris, Prince and Blanket by talking to them. What a wild concept.

Prince, Paris and Blanket at the memorial service for Michael Jackson. The King of Pop was peerless musically, but felt his children were his greatest legacy.

Moreover, Katherine will not let Joe be involved in any disciplinary situations when it comes to the youngsters, so he won't lay a hand on MJ's kids.
Joe admitted to Oprah he whipped Michael with a strap, which he justified by saying that none of the couple's nine children had ever been to jail.
This wasn't exactly news, since his abusive past is common knowledge, but the bluntness and lack of regret was unsettling to many Michael fans.
In any case, it turns out discipline is not a high priority at the Jackson compound ... because Michael's kids are incredibly well-behaved anyway.

Pink is Pregnant!

Pink is pregnant! Carey Hart is the dad! Congratulations to the married, expectant singer and her husband! It will be their first child together.
A source tells the new Us Weekly that "She's 12 weeks along ... she wanted to do it between tours, when she has some time off." Convenient!

Pink (real name Alecia Moore) is pregnant!

The source adds that after the duo’s well-documented 2008 separation, “Pink was determined to make the relationship solid. Now she’s happy."
"They're both really happy and she’s excited she got pregnant so fast! She’ll be a brilliant mother,” says the friend, and we believe it.
No word on whether the little bundle of joy is a boy or a girl, but we're predicting girl. You know, for the obvious color scheme involved.
